Pitching a shutout in MSG in a game seven....sweet.

Who's the poster who originally called them the "Lightening" so I can jokingly mock him some more?

Great series and game!

I have never liked this new coach but he's growing on me...

What's a Stanley Cup?

Seriously? Coach Cooper knows his stuff and is pretty funny in the interviews after games. He does have a bit of an "aww shucks" personality, I guess that could rub some people wrong.

Let's go Lightning! *clap clap clap-clap-clap*

I thought they were toast after game six

Have to play another original team. I wanted the ducks. Always afraid of ref bias when going against an original team

The Rangers really let me down against Tampa Bay. Both teams were terrible at home. The Blackhawks are clear favorites in the finals. That said I'd love to see the upset.

"Clear favorites?" Ummm no. They are evenly matched, even split the series in the regular season. If anyone is the fav, its Tampa Bay. The Lightning have taken out three original teams, one of them the President's Cup winner. Lets also not forget they took out said New York team in game 7 in MSG. Never happened before. You don't go through Detroit, Montreal, and New York and be a clear underdog in the finals.

Go Blackhawks!!

Hawks in 6 is leading the odds in Vegas right now at 7/2. They have Chicago at -150 to win the series, Tampa Bay at +130.

I'm sure they had good odds for the Rangers to win game 7. Cooper said it himself, this team is too young and stupid to know what they are doing :D They've made habit of giving odds the middle finger

 

[-THE DUDE-]

Pretty much

haven't watched much of the Lightning but have heard some comparison's on the Chicago stations that they remind them of a young Blackhawks team that won in 2010. Should be a good series but expecting a Hawks win in 6.

I have no bad will towards the Lightning but that bushleague ticket policy just makes me hope the Hawks stick it to them in 4

If I had known cheering for the Blackhawks would cause you to drink bleach, I would have done it sooner.
